Best answer: The RROD was usually caused by the heatsinks on the CPU and/or GPU in the console coming loose due to inadequate amounts of silver paste being used, or, because the clamps holding the heatsinks were themselves defective.

This could cause the heatsinks to shift or lose contact with the processor chip, causing it to overheat, and causing irreparable damage to the console. At this point, it would always get the RROD when you powered it on.

However, the RROD itself just means "hardware fault" and there can be many different ways to cause a fault - not all of them result in permanent damage.

Yours is the first console I've heard of getting the RROD numerous times, yet continuing to work. Your console does have a problem - sounds like it's with the power connector to the console. So you are extremely lucky that your console has continued to work as well as it has, RROD's and all.

Hi all, i am looking for a new single player adventure game for PC. My PC is decent, it has an Intel core i3 2120 and a GTX 670. The only problem is my internet is awful (100kb/s most of the time.) So the download size would have to be reasonably small. (2GB or less.)
Thanks

I don’t need 4K 120fps, I just want it to run games at a fairly non-laggy rate. Ive checked on Amazon, there are a few $100 dollar computers that have the minimum specs to run FortNite, but I have a hard time believing that they could actually do that.

well, DVDs are normally less than $20 to start from.
video games are usually $50 or more.
since 5 is 25% of 20, you might expect a $60 game to eventually be sold at around $15, but never $5...

Well it's slang really. Its usually used to give an idea of how long it takes a packet of data to get from one device on a network (usually the internet) to another device, AND BACK again!

You'll see it on your XBox because it's useful to know what that delay is when you are gaming - too high a ping and what you are seeing doesn't always quite sync with what other players are seeing, and games can get a bit messy!

*Also you'll sometimes see "ping" used, just to see it a server or device is awake and active!
